jeffro Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 The agency i work for is looking to upgrade, and would like to recoup some costs after the upgrade. We have 60 Lenovo Thinkcentre m77 we'd like to find a buyer for. 3.2 Ghz AMD Athlon II X2 B26 processors 2GB DDR3 RAM 250 GB HDD Tower only http://i.imgur.com/nUIDNTl.png Anyone have any suggestions? They aren't going for much on Ebay, but every little bit counts. Id like to try to find someone to buy all of them at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRTurbo04 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Is this something to cushion your pocket, or for the companys pocket? Cant imagine you will get much? Might be best to donate for a good cause imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck531 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 You could always strip them and take them to Ohiodropoff.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffro Posted August 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 You could always strip them and take them to Ohiodropoff.com I did that with our last rotation and it took me several weeks. Not worth it for $900 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 With Arrow, you throw them all on a pallet and they come and get them. They do the data wiping and everything, and if their in good shape they refurbish them and resell them and you get a share of the profit.

Patterson Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Donating them is easiest. Keep in mind if you don't to show documentation on how you disposed of them. E-Waste is regulated under federal RCRA regulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 They do the data wiping and everything While that's nice no way I would ever let a drive out the door that I didn't wipe myself. If customer data ends up leaking because they don't wipe something who gets set on fire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they will be destroying these, but i imagine the certificate is a release of liability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the news would print a retraction on page 37 a few weeks later once you showed them the certificate. That's still after the front page story of how 10,000 customers data was found on a drive someone bought at a flea market and the last person who touched those devices is now unemployed.
